Title
Interior of a house in Grosvenor Street
Description
View of a staircase in 46 Grosvenor Street, Mayfair. It is an intricately carved wooden staircase in Gothic style. The first flight has two balustrades and reaches a small half-landing after which the stairs become wall hung. The lowest tread of the first flight is decorated with carvings of animals, and the newel posts are also elaborately carved. The treads and risers of the upper flights can be seen from below. The balustrades are densely carved, these carvings piercing the wood with foliage, tracery and quatrefoil motifs. Below the half-landing is an advertisement for Hakone, a national park in Japan. Number 46 is Grade II listed, listing number 1066700. Amongst its occupiers was Sir Edgar Speyer, a wealthy financier and a patron of music, and at the time of the photo, the Japanese Embassy.
